Quoted from mrgone:

you can hear the ball roll over the wood.

My only complaint about the one playfield protector I have, on Old Chicago. You hear the ball go up the shooter lane, then silence.

I've mentioned this on other threads and people think i'm nuts (oh, you may not have said it, but I know you think it lol).
I understand you can't hear the ball rolling around on METALLICA or some newer machines, but you've just described perfectly what it can take away from an EM or SS game. Those sounds are part of the experience. Just hearing the score reels clicking, the motor switches and relays and solenoids firing - there's a magic to it. For those few minutes I'm back at an arcade with my quarter on the glass waiting for my next chance.
